* | quran | * | 80. `abasa. he frowned      <   > 

shakir
 
1.  *     He frowned and turned (his) back,
 
2.  *     Because there came to him the blind man.
 
3.  *     And what would make you know that he would purify himself,
 
4.  *     Or become reminded so that the reminder should profit him?
 
5.  *     As for him who considers himself free from need (of you),
 
6.  *     To him do you address yourself.
 
7.  *     And no blame is on you if he would not purify himself
 
8.  *     And as to him who comes to you striving hard,
 
9.  *     And he fears,
 
10.  *     From him will you divert yourself.
 
11.  *     Nay! surely it is an admonishment.
 
12.  *     So let him who pleases mind it.
 
13.  *     In honored books,
 
14.  *     Exalted, purified,
 
15.  *     In the hands of scribes
 
16.  *     Noble, virtuous.
 
17.  *     Cursed be man! how ungrateful is he!
 
18.  *     Of what thing did He create him?
 
19.  *     Of a small seed; He created him, then He made him according to a measure,
 
20.  *     Then (as for) the way-- He has made it easy (for him)
 
21.  *     Then He causes him to die, then assigns to him a grave,
 
22.  *     Then when He pleases, He will raise him to life again.
 
23.  *     Nay; but he has not done what He bade him.
 
24.  *     Then let man look to his food,
 
25.  *     That We pour down the water, pouring (it) down in abundance,
 
26.  *     Then We cleave the earth, cleaving (it) asunder,
 
27.  *     Then We cause to grow therein the grain,
 
28.  *     And grapes and clover,
 
29.  *     And the olive and the palm,
 
30.  *     And thick gardens,
 
31.  *     And fruits and herbage
 
32.  *     A provision for you and for your cattle.
 
33.  *     But when the deafening cry comes,
 
34.  *     The day on which a man shall fly from his brother,
 
35.  *     And his mother and his father,
 
36.  *     And his spouse and his son--
 
37.  *     Every man of them shall on that day have an affair which will occupy him.
 
38.  *     (Many) faces on that day shall be bright,
 
39.  *     Laughing, joyous.
 
40.  *     And (many) faces on that day, on them shall be dust,
 
41.  *     Darkness shall cover them.
 
42.  *     These are they who are unbelievers, the wicked.
